Our proud owner and director Eyrie Toliver is a USASF certified cheer and dance coach. She has been dancing since the age of 6 starting out at Mademoiselle Dwyn’s School of dance. From there she danced in middle school at Alice M. Harte, in high school at Edna Karr, and in college at Howard University. Reigning as co-captain on all 3 of those teams, Eyrie was able to gain a greater understanding for not only what it’s like to be a part of a dance team but also what it is like to be the person that the entire team relies on for guidance, advice, choreography, creative ideas, etc. After graduating from Howard University Summa Cum Laude in 2021, Eyrie went on to pursue one of her other passions which was coaching competitive cheerleading. Eyrie coached multiple teams at NOLA All Stars, where she was also employed as a tumbling instructor. After a high demand of request, she went on to teaching private tumbling lessons. As her client list continued to grow with so many talented young women she began wondering “why not form my own dance program?” and from there, EDT was created.
